Hi!
We're looking to get on the property ladder, are more or less ready to get our own flat.
Our budget isn't enormous. Ms Leuth is in charge of searching.
A VERY great proportion of flats in our price range are coming up in the Crystal Palace area.
I have no objection except the obvious crushing moral one. But is this objection trifling? Should I just bite the bullet if she finds a flat in that damned area that we both like?
She's just shown me one in Penge. We're viewing one in Upper Norwood on Saturday. The wheels are turning and it scares me

if you can afford there, you can afford somewhere else less dirty.
Areas i would actively avoid are swaths of Sydenham and pretty much all of Anerley, some parts of Penge too and Norwood Junction end of Norwood. No go areas also Woodside, Clock house and Elmers End, though if i was given a place in any of those i might eventually adapt and feel at home.
Football allegiances can matter especially if you are triggered by old rivalries and even more so if you are a known quantity and likely to be targeted
When I tell people me and the wife live in West Wickham, I'm told I must be worth quite a bit.
House prices are probably more in Crystal Palace and Penge.
Also I will rip you limb from limb
Where do you live now btw?
Rightmovecouk with your budget spend will help, but I imagine you know that.
